Justin Bieber – world record holder?

Yes, the Biebs can now claim almost as many Guinness World Records titles as he can tattoos.

The 2017 edition of the record book honors Bieber for: the most streamed track on Spotify (“What Do You Mean” with 30,723,708); the most streamed album on Spotify in one week (“Purpose,” 205 million); the most simultaneous tracks on the Billboard Hot 100 in December 2015 (17); the most Twitter followers (82,235,563); and the most viewed YouTube music channel (10,478,651,389).

Bieber’s eight accolades also included nods for filling the Top 3 slots on the U.K. singles chart, having the most YouTube subscribers of any male and having the most simultaneous new entries in the Billboard Hot 100.
